Midnight


Tea yawned as she stood by the front door saying goodbye to her long term boyfriend. "Get some sleep." The odd tri color haired man Yami kissed her forehead. He wasn't going too far he lived in the building. Yet him leaving was just the same as him leaving for years. Tea could never in her life accept him being so far. They were meant for each other and any other night she would've argued until he was back in her bed but tonight he outsmarted her in a way she hadn't seen coming.

Words just went coming out and her legs felt like jello. She wondered how she'd work in the morning. Only giving a muffled bye she closed the door locking it and tried to make her way back to her bedroom. Half way she stopped looking over on the couch to see Mai curled up asleep with a bottle half empty and an old highschool year book opened. "So she does think about him…" she went to bed.

Mai groaned her eyes burned as she opened them. She scanned over the room slowly and understood she was home. Not worried at all she sat up taking another chug from her bottle making sure she would forget this night. She turned and walked to her room.

Stopping at her opened door she caught the blue eyed white haired man she had passed earlier on the street standing in her room. "I knew he'd come sooner or later…." Standing there, Mai was relaxed as she stared down her intruder, to her surprise he was just as relaxed as well. "I'm guessing you've come for my collection?" Mai asked.

Bakura sighed, anyone in the world and his target just had to be the drunken blonde he had passed hours ago. He noticed the bottle in her hands. Drunks bothered him, they were irrational and foolish. All were the same in his opinion every man and woman. He stood up straight and looked around the room, he knew there was another person inside the apartment. "Not necessarily, just one item in particular."

His accent caught her slightly off guard, she remembered running into him earlier. Now somewhat confused if their earlier meeting was premeditated or not. Mai nodded, "Well I planned on giving it back. But it's just so difficult to return when Marik can't keep an address. I'll be back."

"Uhm… okay." Bakura said unsure of what was to happen. Alert and ready for anything. He listened to her stumble over something and several banging sounds. She obviously does not understand the meaning of quiet. Mai returned in a few minutes handing over an interesting looking item. Appeared to be a golden eyeball. Satisfied he toke it without question towards her cooperation. "thank you." It seemed appropriate as odd as the situation was. He turned to take leave but remembered something, "It's natural."

Mai nodded, before going and flopped down on her bed, "I suggest you take the stairs on your way down. Security watches the elevator like hawks in case of events like this. But I suppose…" she yawned as she got comfortable laying her head upon her pillow. "I'll give them my word you were no threat… What's your name?"

"Bakura." He answered as he left.
